They offer to give it to me to get it out of their hair, if I will move it. Any opinions?? It is dark wood, upright, and cosmetically seems to be in good shape. It almost appears to be some sort of "institutional model", most panels are secured with conspicuous stainless steel screws, which look like they are part of the original design. I have no idea of the age or model, but would presume this came to the school as a donation. Comments valued!! Trash or treasure?? Dave >> Never mind about the outside, it's the insides that needs to be inspected. No matter what brand of piano it is, if the action, soundboard, pin block and bridges aren't any good, the piano isn't worth hauling. Have a profession piano technician look at the action, test the pin block and inspect the soundboard and bridges. If they are all intact, then you've got a good piano. Willem Blees
